UIPasteboard is a wonderfully simple little type with a ton of great functionality inside. (Covered previously in Bite #45). Today we'll check out the latest pasteboard improvements in iOS 10. Let's begin.

The biggest new user-facing feature of pasteboards in iOS 10 and macOS Sierra is the Universal Clipboard. This allows users to copy some content into their clipboard on one device, and retrieve it on another.

We don't need to do anything to get this functionality in our apps. This behavior is on by default for UIPasteboard.general, but we can configure how items behave when we add them.
